			== The "Pure Virtual Function . . ." Bug ==

			This bug is directly related to your system memory (RAM) being overloaded. It appears to be rooted in the Unreal Engine code that runs XCOM2. THERE IS NO FIX other than reloading an earlier save. It is not related to a single mod, and is usually a combination of mods or other programs (or even Windows processes) causing your system RAM to max out. If it happens repeatedly begin by unsubscribing to some mods (Voice Packs in particular)and try running the game again.

It appears to be a timing issue when several functions cause your GPU to freeze up. The on screen location that you see under the Avenger is allegedly the map location "0,0" and it appears that the game defaults to that location when your GPU cannot process the incoming data. Reducing the number of mods appears to help, but as with the previous bug it is not caused by a particular bug, but it apparently exacerbated by running mods that tax your GPU.
